Out of My Body Songtext

von Richard Ashcroft

Out of the darkness, you saved me
I was alone, you came down to claim me
Out of the darkness, you saved me
Out of the darkness, yeah, you came down to claim me

There'll be no heroes on this battlefield
They'll destroy you
Now don't go looking for your Watergate
Who employs you, baby, they'll exploit you

Man I'm not afraid
Don't need a master
I know what you're after
I'll take my chances

Man I'm not afraid
No ticker tape
Cuz when you find the truth
It'll rock ya to your roots

Out of my body
Out of my mind
Free of control
The way I like it

Out of my body
Out of my mind
Out of this world
Out of time

Would you just walk by on the other side?
Just like those others?
Are you asleep, are you still alive?
Do you still wonder?

Man I'm not afraid
Don't need that master
I know what you're after
I'll take my chances

Man I'm not afraid
No ticker tape
Cuz when you find the truth
It'll rock ya to your roots

Out of my body
Out of my mind
Free of control
The way I like it

Out of my body
Out of my mind
Out of this world
Out of time

And tell everybody, write it up in the sky
Telling you know the reasons why
And tell everybody, write it up in the sky
Telling you know it's one big lie

Out of the darkness, you saved me
I was alone, you came down to claim me
We went walking together
You whispered mysteries that have been here forever

Oh Lord I want to know now
Why this pain it just seems to grow, yeah
Out of the darkness, you saved me
I was lonely, you came down to claim me

Out of my body
Out of my mind
Free of control
The way I like it

Out of my body
Out of my mind
Out of this world
Free of time

And tell everybody, write it up in the sky
Telling you know - spell out the lie
And tell everybody, write it up in the sky
Telling you know it's one big lie, yeah

Oh now
Oh yeah
I'm free of control
Now don't go looking for your Watergate
They'll destroy you

Are you asleep, are you still alive?
(I'm free of control)
Do you still wonder?
